One habit, thirty days

The deeds tracker shows you a week. This page helps you keep one new habit until it no longer needs the page. Print it, write one habit per row, and mark every day.

The method

Choose one habit, not five: a Sunnah you have been meaning to keep, such as two rak‘āt of Duha, a page of Qur’an, or the morning adhkār.
Tie it to a prayer you already pray: "after Fajr, one page of Qur’an". The prayer becomes the reminder.
Make it small enough to do on your worst day. Two minutes counts. You can always do more.
Mark the day as soon as it is done. The row of marks is the reward.
Never miss twice. One missed day is a slip; two in a row is a new habit of missing.
After thirty days, either keep the habit without the page or start the next one.

Print this page with your browser’s print option and keep it where you pray.
